PY - 2006 DA - 2006// TI - Spiral antenna coupled and directly coupled NbN HEB mixers in the frequency range from 1 to 70 THz T2 - Proc. 17[super:th] Int. Symp. Space Terahertz Technol. BT - Proc. 17[super:th] Int. Symp. Space Terahertz Technol. SP - 177 EP - 179 CY - Paris, France KW - directly coupled NbN HEB mixers AB - We investigate both antenna coupled and directly coupled HEB mixers at several LO frequencies within the range of 2.5 THz to 70 THz. H20 (2.5+10.7 THz), and CO2 (30 THz) gas discharge lasers are used as the local oscillators. The noise temperature of antenna coupled mixers is measured at LO frequencies of 2.5 THz, 3.8 THz, and 30 THz. The results for both antenna coupled and directly coupled mixer types are compared. The devices with in—plane dimensions of 5x5 ,um 2 are pumped by LO radiation at 10.7 THz. The directly coupled HEB demonstrates nearly flat dependence of responsivity on frequency in the range of 25+64 THz.
